Genial sein ist auch keine Lösung. Sam hat keine allzu großen Ansprüche an sein Teenagerleben. Er hat kaum Follower auf Instagram, sein Freundeskreis ist überschaubar, er schreibt mittelmäßige Noten und das Wichtigste: Er ist mit seiner Durchschnittlichkeit voll und ganz zufrieden. Doch als seine Familie in ein schickes Londoner Viertel zieht, fangen für Sam die Probleme an: Seine Mutter meldet ihn an der "Nord-London-Akademie für Begabte und Talentierte" an, einer Elite-Schule für künstlerisch interessierte und hochbegabte Kinder, die allesamt damit beschäftigt zu sein scheinen, irgendwelche Elektro-Wave-Emo-Crossover-Bands zu gründen oder eines Tages Hollywood zu erobern.

Shira Gordon is painfully shy. She rarely speaks and blushes at everything. And yet, when she’s alone in her room, she’ll sing and dance, dreaming she were different. So when her best friend forces her to audition for their school’s production of The Music Man, she’s mostly hoping the play will get canceled…but a tiny part of her hopes she’ll get in. And she does. As a member of the barbershop quartet. Playing a dude with a mustache is not exactly her dream role, but Shira is surprised by how much she loves rehearsing with her quirky new friends.

Es ist nicht immer leicht, ein Kind zu sein. Das weiß niemand besser als Nils Holgersson. Die Eltern sind unzufrieden, dauernd gibt es Streit, und wohin man mit der eigenen schlechten Laune soll, weiß man auch nicht so recht.

Als dann auch noch Hausgans Marten vom Hof der Holgerssons abhauen will, schmeißt sich der jetzt sehr kleine Nils Marten an den Hals – und findet sich plötzlich mitten im Abenteuer und in einer Schar von Wildgänsen wieder!
